Introduction In non-terminating decimals, the numbers after the decimal point tend to be endless. In the non-terminating repeating decimals, a sequence of numbers after the decimal point is recurring in a specific pattern. These types of numbers are called Rational numbers. They are in $\mathrm{\frac{p}{q}}$ where q ≠ 0. In non-terminating decimals we will be discussing irrational numbers which cannot be represented in fractions. Whereas, if the non-terminating decimals have recurring patterns then it is said these decimals can be converted into fractions. In this tutorial, we will learn about non-terminating repeating decimals and how to ... Read More

Introduction Before we learn about multiple linear regression, let us understand what linear regression is. Linear regression helps in determining the relationship between two variables in data sets. As already stated linear regression has its limitation to two variables. Therefore, multiple linear regression helps in determining the relationship between more than two variables. Though multiple linear regression cannot overcome the weakness of linear regression, multiple linear regression is used to make a regression model with multiple independent variables and single dependent variable. Multiple linear regression is used most importantly in econometrics and financial inference. Definition Simple ... Read More

Introduction Usually, various physical entities are expressed in a mathematical equation that includes several variables. A function can represent the nature of variables during the process. A function can be graphically presented between the variable and the desired response. However, most of the time, we need to find the specific points at which the function gives a maximum and a minimum value. In this direction, the derivative test, which is a fundamental concept of calculus, is found to be quite helpful. In this tutorial, we will learn about the derivative, its application in optimization, and the determination of maxima and ... Read More

Introduction In statistical mathematics population can mean a set of observations or objects. Population, in statistics and quantitative methodology, can be defined as a collection of data satisfying specific conditions. A sample can be defined as a group of observations from a population. The sample size is always less than the size of the population. Non-probability sampling can further be divided into quota sampling, judgement sampling, and purposive sampling. Population and sample are used in market research widely in inferring behaviour of a population. Statistical analysis in financial decisions also implements population and sample. In this tutorial ... Read More

Introduction Place value is the foundation for understanding number systems in mathematics. Place value helps in understanding the base 10 number system. Place value worksheet is an important tool to understand the concept, and helps students develop logical, problem-solving and reasoning skills. Place Value Each digit in a multi-digit number has a specific position in that number, which is defined by the base 10 number system. When a multi-digit number is written in numerical form, the position of a number can vary from unit to infinity. Place Value Chart For a 10-digit number, the following table represents the placement of ... Read More

Introduction Many people find math a difficult subject. You have to ask about the benefits of studying mathematics and the practical application of mathematics. Mathematics is ubiquitous, as is the relationship between the meaning of numbers and everyday life. Mathematics is all about numbers, and numbers can be categorized into different types of numbers, including Integers, real numbers, complex numbers, rational numbers, irrational numbers, and many others. Negative Numbers Neither the negative numbers are greater than nor are equal to zero. They are the numbers along with a minus sign or a hyphen (-). On the number line, negative numbers ... Read More

Introduction In calculus, Derivatives are a basic tool in solving problems and differential equations. Derivatives are used as a tool by scientists to analyse dynamic systems to determine the change in variables, and use this to frame differential equations, and use integration to predict the future changes. To put simply, a second-order derivative is the two consequent derivatives of a function, or it is the derivative of the first order derivative of that function. In this tutorial, we will learn about derivatives, order of derivatives, second order derivatives, second order derivatives of parametric functions, and some solved examples. Derivative Derivative ... Read More

Introduction In daily life, we encounter various activities that have multiple outcomes. Although we cannot predict the exact outcome, we can estimate all possible outcomes of that event or activity. In this tutorial, we will discuss the sample space, some special events, and their possible outcomes with solved examples. Sample Space The sample space, a concept of probability theory, is the collection of all the possible outcomes of a random event or experiment. The sample space is abbreviated by the set notation and is more usually represented by S. Moreover, it can also be represented by U (universal set) or ... Read More

Introduction Any group's median is the value that falls in the middle. At this stage, half of the data is more, and half is less. The median makes it possible to express a lot of data points with just one. The median is the most straightforward statistical metric to compute. The middle data point reflects the median of the data after the data is organised in ascending order for the purpose of calculating the median. Central Tendencies One of the three measurements of central tendency is the median. The centre position of the data set is noted while discussing a ... Read More

Introduction If a polygon has an equal two-dimensional closed shape formed if all the sides and interior angles of the polygons are equal, they are known as regular polygons. A Square, and an equilateral triangle are some of the examples of regular polygons. A regular hexagon is a closed shape polygon which has six equal sides and six equal angles. In this tutorial we will learn about a regular hexagon, angles of a regular hexagon, exterior angles of a regular hexagon, diagonals and line of symmetries of a regular hexagon, hexagonal tiling, hexagons in real life, and some related solved ...
